Posted on September 13, 2017

It’s time to use those golf clubs for a good cause. Austin Community College (ACC) hosts its 12th annual Golf Scramble Friday, October 13, at Riverside Golf Course (1020 Grove Blvd.). Check-in begins at 7:30 a.m. for an 8:30 a.m. start.

Co-sponsored by SpawGlass, the Golf Scramble benefits the ACC Student Emergency Fund. To date, more than $160,000 has been distributed from the fund to help more than 260 students facing crises that might prevent them from continuing their education. Last year’s event raised $35,000, the highest amount to date.

Tournament participants are encouraged to register in advance. The cost is $75 per player or $300 per foursome. Registration covers greens fees, cart, breakfast, lunch, and prizes. Sponsorship opportunities also are available. Prizes will be awarded for first, second, and third place, as well as longest drive and closest to the pin.
